A thought for the day

If you are not religious, that's ok, this is just a thought I had today on the way to school...
It is truly amazing what God has made. He made this earth and everything on it. He made us. He made us able to feel so that would could experience the things that he created in this world. Feel the cool breeze, smell the spring air, hear the birds chirping and the wind blowing. He created the mountains and the oceans. He created love, and all the other emotions. And when he decides that we have finished our job on earth and are worthy, we will get to see the kingdom of heaven. We will get to the ultimate destination and see perfection. This world is God's gift to us. I cherish my life. Life is a miracle. Everything I feel is a miracle, even the bad things. It is part of the road that leads to an eternity of ultimate peace.

Well that is my thought for the day, just thought that I would share. I know some people do not agree with the religious aspect, but I wanted to share regardless. I hope that everyone is having a good day. Today is a gift!

thank you kt! sometimes we get so caught up in the craziness of work, school or home and dont stop to realize and appreciate these things! Im glad you shared this with us to remind us to be thankful for whats around us in nature!

It's interesting, I came back to read my post and still think that it is true...but now I wonder why I feel so down. I am feeling depressed this evening because I feel like the man who makes me life complete is not with me right now, and that there is the chance that he will never be fully with me. I know that God has his plans, and everything happens for a reason. If D and I are meant, which I truly believe we are, then we will be together. I need to learn to put my trust in God. Does anyone have any advice on how to relax knowing that my life is in his hands?

They say that the power of positive thinking can make great things happen. I guess it's a matter of if it's truly what you wish for. I don't have the answer for it, only you do. If that little voice inside of you says to believe and be strong follow it. That little voice within you can be your best friend sometimes

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
